Charterhouse Recording Studio is a class ‘A’ music production and mixing facility in London, Ontario Canada. This facility runs Pro Tools 11 HD, 32ch of i/o via two Universal Audio Apollo 16 interfaces which provide zero latency monitoring and support for sample rates up to 192KHz, all of which is controlled by a 36 fader Euphonix EUCON controller system. Our front end includes dozens of high-end microphones, 24 channels of class A boutique microphone preamps, many of the staples in outboard processing tools and one serious arsenal of digital plugins. Our system integrates seamlessly with your Pro Tools HD, LE or M-Powered sessions, allowing you to bounce projects between your own studio and ours. This allows you to control when you need our services and maintain your budget.
